Book excerpt: The Episcopal Church was the first in the American colonies to baptize blacks, to ordain black ministers, and to establish an African American congregation. Yet membership by blacks in the Episcopal Church has always been viewed as an anomaly. Yet With a Steady Beat argues that blacks have remained in the Episcopal Church because they have recognized it as a catholic and therefore inclusive institution.
